Earth Won by Arthur Seymour is set in a technologically advanced future era of our recent century. The story revolves around Seymour, a man residing on an island along with his peculiar dog, Glen, and his assistant robot, Robyn. Seymour actively participates in collecting research data on an evil organization and mysterious creatures, not only relying on Robyn but also embarking on numerous trips himself to further his studies in his laboratory. During his adventurous journey, Seymour forms friendships and encounters the love of his life, Ruby. Through a telepathic connection, they grow closer and become partners in a mission to save the Earth.
The book prominently features hyperlinks as a significant element. It explores scientific concepts, such as the explanation behind the presence of a face on the moon in various locations worldwide on April 15. Additionally, the book delves into the existence of pure carbon alongside a group of Giant Isopods. Through these scientific concepts, readers are transported into a futuristic setting and immersed in the thrilling adventures of Seymour and his robot companions.
The book gathers a wealth of information and presents an abundance of elements, creating a captivating and immersive experience. However, this abundance can make it seem like the author is trying to cram too much into the narrative. Additionally, the lack of complex character development, despite a telepathic connection explanation, is not convincingly portrayed. From my perspective, certain characters keep appearing, but they are mentioned merely as ideas. Moreover, the late appearance of some individuals leaves the story full of unresolved problems.
One of the positive points of the book is that the two sentences effectively communicate the author's goals and the purpose of the book: "Truth is often not what we see or hear. Truth is what really happened." It makes sense that Seymour would like to illuminate things that the readers might not have dug into. He aims to shed light on new perspectives or provide insights that go beyond the surface level.
Based on the points I have made, I would rate this book 3 out of 5 stars. I believe the book is a blend of scientific research and fiction. I would recommend it to those who enjoy a short story with futuristic settings.
